Thanks for your review and feedback Sue! We do have a few deals with a calendar function to check availability before purchase, you can find this on deals that show 'Instant Book' on the deal image. While this isn't available for all our deals, we hope to have this rolled out across our experience and escapes deals. Thanks! :)

False claim duvet

I purchased a duvet that was said to be 700 GSM and when it arrived it was nowhere near as thick as the picture looked and there is no way its 700 GSM. It was so thin I'm super disappointed. False advertising.

Great customer service

Great customer service. I made an account and spelt my email address incorrectly. I didn’t confirm my email address before going shopping on the GrabOne app and made a purchase. I was then wondering why my purchase email confirmation didn’t come through within 10 minutes. Found out that I spelt my email address incorrectly and I couldn’t view my purchases until I confirmed my email address. So I emailed the help desk and they sent my purchase ticket to my email address. Thank you again team
